Females in Basic

In general, you can expect to be treated to the same training as the males. Here's an idea of what you can expect BCT to be like and what you can expect to pack. Be prepared for strict rules about relationships between the opposite sex, especially during BCT. Overall, if you keep your focus on why you are there, it's not really an issue. Good luck!

All the females at basic are expected to do the same as males. We had just as many males drop as females, so I'd say you're at no disadvantage. Work just as hard as everyone else and you'll be ok. My assistant platoon guide for most of basic was female. 2nd highest PT was a female. You'll do fine.
